Excellent Moisturizer - But? "Better Than Botox" - NOT
Dreading the thought of any type of invasive procedures, and constantly seeing advertisements that say "Better than Botox?" (with a quote from a Doctor)for StriVectin-SD, and even though it looked to be expensive, I decided to give this product a try. StriVectin is advertised as both an intensive concentrate for Existing Stretch Marks, and as a significant reducer of fine lines, wrinkles, crows' feet and dark under eye circles. My purpose was for the fine lines, wrinkles,and dark circles, as stretch marks is probably the one thing my body has not been subjected too. So my review will not deal with that aspect, but I would encourage anyone who has tried it for use as a stretch mark reducer to leave a review or comment on my review so that others interested in that can have an idea of it's effectiveness for that.

So I used this product pretty religiously as directed for the last 3 months. Applying 3 times a day to my face and throat(okay once in a while, only 2 times a day, as I didn't always have it with me), and the first thing I noticed was it was excellent as a moisturizer. My skin still felt silky smooth and firmer in the morning. After a few weeks, I began to see what I perceived as some improvement around my eyes(dark circles and fine lines), and was really jazzed about that. For the next couple of months, I was really hoping that I would see more dramatic results as time went by("Better then Botox?"). I saw some,and the appearance of the deeper wrinkles were also slightly minimized, but nothing as dramatic as I expected. No one said to me that I looked "10-15 years younger"..or even said anything at all. And I think if I would have had Botox, someone would have remarked on the difference.I did notice some slight improvement in one area I hadn't expected. After I went through menopause, the skin on my throat, became very very dry and left a bit of a "mask" in that area. To me it appeared a little less noticeable.

Would I buy it again?? Yes. As a moisturizer I found it most effective.If I was just rating that aspect I would go 5 stars.I also did see some difference in problem areas. It was mild and didn't casue any redness or other problems to my face. I would probably use this as a replacement for night creams, and using just once a day, this 6 oz. tube should last 8-9 months.It lasted nearly 3 months using mostly 3 times a day. So comparably in that sense , even though the price a first glance is staggering, that's at least three times as long as the 1-2 oz. jars of a good moisturizer. It is though sold through a few different sellers here and ocassionally I do see it on sale. So check around for best deal(keep shipping deals in mind,some places offer free shipping with qualifying purchases). Here is another site:StriVectin-SD "Better Than Botox?" by Klein Becker Intensive Concentrate for Existing Stretch Marks 177.4 ml 6 oz. Or just enter Strivectin into health and personal care search to surf their products.

So overall I'm going with 3 1/2 stars, as I just don't think it lived up to all that it claims.Once again, those who have used this for reducing stretch marks, please leave us your thoughts via a review or a comment.

Pregnancy Stretch Marks
I was skeptical about this expensive product, but a friend of mine purchased it for me after I had my baby. I had a lot of dark nasty stretch marks that crept up during the last month of pregnancy. I have been using this product faithfully 3x a day. Well, actually I apply it during the evening when my 2 month old gets me up in the middle of the night,it's the only way that I can remember to apply it. It's been 4 weeks and already I can see the dark stretch marks lightening up! My sister has noticed a vast improvement. Use the product on "fresh" stretch marks.
